OM-TDB/6

Equipment Description

The Groen TDB/6 is a table top, tilting, steam jacketed kettle with a thermostatically controlled, self-contained, electrically-heated steam supply and appropriate controls, mounted on a sturdy base.

The body of the TDB/6 Kettle is constructed of stainless steel, welded into one solid piece. The kettle is furnished with a reinforced rim and a butterfly shaped pouring lip. It has a steam jacket rated for working pressures up to 50 PSI. Kettle finish is 180 emery grit on the inside and bright semi-deluxe on the outside. A tilt handle allows the operator to manually tilt the kettle body in a controlled manner. Pouring height accepts pans up to 4 inches high on the table top.

A built-in steam generator, sized for the kettle capacity and heated by electricity, delivers steam into the jacket. “Airless” operation of the steam jacket permits uniform, efficient heating at temperatures as low as 150°F and as high as 295°F. In addition to the adjustable thermostat for operating control, the unit has a tilt cut-off switch, low water control, safety valve, and pressure switch as safety features. A heating indicator light, pressure gauge, and sight glass are provided for monitoring kettle operation.

A single electrical connection is required for installation. The unit employs single phase 208 or 240 volt power.
